This is my fist foray into the blogging zone, so bear with me. Kudos to all of you who have mastered the art!
Hot out today, so I washed a very small portion of the 22 pounds of fleece that I have recently accumulated (acquired wouldn't be quite right as it just kept coming) and spun some more of the multi-purple (funny this looked more evenly plied in person). I am almost finished spinning the first single of the fourth skein. The first two went into a triangle shawl which I hope to photograph at weeks end. I did the spinning and my friend Sue Cagan from Valley Vogue -http://www.valleyvogue.com/ did the weaving as part of an open house demonstration at the Indian Orchard Mill, Mother's Day weekend. We have produced four shawls together so far. In between I spun 300 plus yards of grey, from I'm not sure what kind of sheep. The lovely fleece was given to me along with a white one. I had just purchased several pounds of merino and some rambouillet, and today I was surprised to receive another box of fleece to replace a misguided purchase, so I have plenty to keep me busy.
The garden watering beckons- tomorrow I'll tackle adding photos of my latest knitting endeavors. Regards.
